Abstract
The problem of devising energy-dependent detectors for the ultra-relativistic region is discussed from the point of view of thin film devices. Ionization loss, secondary electron emission, and transition radiation are proposed mechanisms for producing an energy-dependent signal from thin films.Keywords
